Latest info I saw was a new oscillating system from Viking/ Fire Flex using ICAF compressed air foam. Check with your Viking rep to contact Fire Flex or go direct on line. They are very helpful with design help and preliminary cost estimates.

I have designed deluge sprinkler foam water systems activated by cross-zoned flame detectors in the past for racks with canopies, but I have a client who wants to look at oscillating ground sweep monitors to protect the area under the canopy. I kind of like that idea, because it gives first responders some ability to unlock the monitor and spray other adjacent areas. I'm leaning towards the monitors also now that I am comparing all facets of each system. Has anyone had any experience with other arrangements they prefer? Thanks very much, Steve Kowkabany, P.E.
